Abstract: An improved method for performing a conditioning process for a particulate filter, preferably adapted for an aftertreatment system arranged downstream of an internal combustion engine. The proposed method provides for conditioning of a filter under controlled conditions such that the filter may reach a desired operation state in a more efficient and faster manner. Further, the proposed method also advantageously provides for maintaining the desired operation state, in which the filtration capacity may be at a usable level.

Abstract: A method for controlling a filtering efficiency of a filter including a filtering area between an inflow area and an outflow area. Determining a present exhaust mass flow into the filter. Determining a pressure drop across the filter from the inflow area and the outflow area of the filter. Normalizing the measured pressure drop to provide a normalized pressure drop according to a predetermined normalization pressure level at a predetermined temperature for a model filter. Comparing the normalized pressure drop to a pressure drop model including a relation between the pressure drop across a filter and exhaust mass flow to the filter. Determining a pressure deviation between the normalized pressure drop and a pressure drop value calculated based on the pressure drop model and the present exhaust gas flow. Controlling the pressure drop across the filter for reducing the pressure deviation.

Abstract: A method for generating a camshaft signature for camshaft positioning calibration for a camshaft included in a combustion engine. The camshaft is adapted to cause a valve to open and close an opening to a cylinder volume of the combustion engine. The combustion engine further includes an intake surge tank adapted for receiving air from the outside environment. The intake surge tank is in fluid connection with the cylinder volume of the combustion engine for providing air for mixing with fuel injected into the cylinder.
